Description

Hi, I recently found a very nice 2nd state, 1966 Beatles "Yesterday and Today" Butcher cover.  The cover is in VG+ condition.  There are no splits on the top and bottom seams and the spine is complete as well.  There is about 1/4" of shelf wear on the bottom left side.  The cover does have some discoloration on two spots, both near the trunk.  Please review the photos.  I have dealt with records for 20+ years and I am grading the record at VG/VG (it's closer to VG+ on both sides, but I'm being conservative).  The cover is graded at VG+ using Goldmine standards.  There is no inner sleeve.  The back of the cover has the number "6" on the bottom right side. Back of the cover has a small amount of ring wear near the top.  Additional photos available if you would like.

GRADING

NEAR MINT (NM): A nearly perfect record.  VINYL: The record should show no obvious signs of wear.  Surface areas should be shiny on both sides with no discernible imperfections.  The label must be well centered with absolutely no writing on either side.  The label color must be vibrant with sharp print.  Center hole should be free of any wear.  COVER:  A record cover must have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-outs, writing or other imperfections.  The paper color on both sides must be vibrant with no foxing whatsoever.  And of course, the same must be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like. 

VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+):  Record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it.  VINYL: Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect one's listening experiences.  Slight warps that do not affect the sound are allowed.  The label may have some minor ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.  The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play.  COVER: Record cover will show slight signs of wear.  These may include a bumped corner; minor writing or corner stamp indicating it was sold at discount.

VERY GOOD (VG):  Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc.  VINYL: Surface noise will be faintly evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade.  This in no way will overpower the music otherwise.  Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail).  COVER: A Very Good record cover will show moderate wear.  Though the cover must be free of serious obtrusions it can show the effects of heavy writing, discoloration, or other imperfections of not being kept as it should have been.  A taped seam, small cutouts, and imperfections are common.  Anymore and the record would be graded as only Good (see below).

GOOD (G):  VINYL: A record in Good condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping.  But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white).  COVER: A cover or record sleeve will have seam splits especially at the bottom or on the spine.  Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.
